Feature Pyramid Fusion for Detection and Segmentation of Morphologically Complex Eukaryotic Cells

Fusion of feature pyramids for nucleus segmentation and cell segmentation. The model uses nucleus and cytoplasma signal to achieve better cell segmentation results.

The code is based on the Mask R-CNN implementation of https://github.com/matterport/Mask_RCNN and extends it for feature pyramid fusion.
